Emergency first responders in Lafeyette, Orinda and Morage ran a test of their emergency communication systems; they wanted to make sure, in the event of emergency, people are kept safe.
Fire Station 45 of the Moraga-Orinda Fire District along Orinda Way served as the mock communications hub Saturday morning. Crews played pretend - reacting to a growing wildfire hypothetically approaching the Orinda Hills.
The morning started with an emergency alert - 40,000 messages went out to people who live in the Lamorinda region of the East Bay. If you received the alert, that means you're in a good spot should an emergency situation rise. If you didn't get the alert, consider that a problem. Officials say this exercise is a good reminder to sign up for all forms of alert notifications, including Contra Costa County's Community Warning System.
